went for a lil drive to kill time and boredom just now..

Few nice cars out tonite

blue 32 with white rims parked just off end of anzac highway near glenelg, then black 32 with chromies on jetty road, and last one saw on marion road, white 32 with either BN or Vertex kit, really low, anyone off here? Looked awesome!

yeah I miss it Luke, but the R34 is nearly as quick and much easier/more pleasant/more comfortable to drive!! I put a double DIN DVD player in it recently and love mobile TV and movies!

yeah he drove it like he stole it e from the moment he first sat in it - even on the test drive (much to my disgust). I spotted it parked in Ingle Farm a few weeks back. I had been told it was written off but seems that was a rumour. I take it when you saw it Joel it didn't have my PCOTY plates on it anymore - he never came to get the transfer agreement from me.

Thats right.. No PCOTY plates.

I had issues when I sold my VS 5speed 5ltr. I had nothing but young kids wanting to test drive. I ended up saying lay a deposit for a test drive; if it drives bad or what ever which it doesn't you can have your deposit back. No one was keen apart from an older couple that bought it anyway. I really got sick of time wasters when trying to sell that car.

lol Andrew and the R34 is more pimp'd

just went to the plaza @ 7:30 saw a R34 4door @ st agnes then a R33 gun metal grey @ the underground carpark near woolworths then when leaving a black R34 when leaving

Spottet Miss Heslo today (I keep following your car)

Followed her along Grand Junction Rd, Main North East Rd - where she stalled it taking off with a nice new porche opposite TTPlus - then down Golden Grove and onto Grenfell. (she didnt play guitar on the sun roof however)

Hahahaha!!! :D Yeah, that's the missus, would have been on her way to my place, gave her the car for the day and she stalls it! Gonna give her so much shit :(

Oh, and she hasn't been taught in the ways of the sun roof guitar yet, that's for the pro's ;)

Spotted red RBB033 with duckwing yesterday after work at Gilles St..live nearby as well! .. nice clean ride :(

Yes Yes that'd be me :D So you live near me or you live near Gillies St? Were you in a Line or walking?

Oh and i saw Mike's old car at the little BP on Goody Rd about 8pm last night! Still looking the goods!

got a wave from a dude in a clean R33 4 door at the bottom end of morphett road this arvo, his car was pullin out of D.L. Thomas removals. Nice lookin meshy rims too........always have had a soft spot for meshies (mmmmm thinks what my car would look like with SSR Reverse Meshies on it..........mmmm 15x9 :))

Spotted this lovely piece of Italian machinery at a place I valued in the Eastern suburbs today ..... mmmm 400i - old school classic ..... 5L flat 12 and it sounded sweet as!

haha GM trimatic 3-speed auto... the pinnacle of italian motoring :laughing-smiley-014:

Hi Matty, that'd be me you saw! They're a customer of ours and I just leaving there when you flashed your number plate at me going sideways down the road!! ;) My car is so grubby at the moment I was suprised you could see the rims at all. They do scrub up nicely though.....18" Zepter Mesh with a bit of dish.

I kind of had to do a double take initially because your sig shows the car with silver rims, not the broze jobbies you had on there today. Car looks great by the way.

I keep reading that a bunch of you guys work in the area but I never get to see any of you (you're all probably hard at work when I'm in the area).

No doubt I'll catch you around..... everyone else seems to! Cheers, Mike :)

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
